PedalBox

The PedalBox is installed between the accelerator pedal sensor and the control module and works by capturing the accelerator pedal signal and transforming it. This is a fantastic option to enhance driving pleasure on normal aspirated and turbo vehicles, and does not affect the vehicle warrantee as it does not alter the engine in any way.

Lots of manufacturers offer similar functions via standard “Sports/ECO buttons”. The PedalBox reduces the pedal travel necessary in order to reach a “throttle wide open” state (full throttle response).

This allows the driver to exploit the full potential of the engine, and throttle lag will almost be completely eliminated.

The PedalBox has four user-selectable programmes, that increases throttle response by removing delays in the accelerator, enhancing driveability. If driving style is adjusted, the PedalBox can even allow fuel consumption to be reduced. The four modes available are, SPORT mode, SPORT Plus mode, ECO mode and OFF.

Greater control. Pedalbox Adjustment.

All drivers face a wide range of driving conditions and situations. The PealBox allows drivers to choose between four levels, each with three seperate modes offering improved response. The PedalBox includes different programmes tailored to meet the most drivers range of driver’s wishes. The driver can select the programme most suited to the driving situation.

Reduced response time. More dynamic.

Moments of delay are a thing of the past. The signal is immediately followed by the response, giving the driver the feeling that he or she is accelerating faster. However, the torque remains the same. It is merely the response ratios that have improved.

Maximum efficiency. Greater driving pleasure.

Once responsiveness has improved, driving is a lot more fun. Plus, quick acceleration without any delay gives drivers the feeling of being in better control of their vehicle.

Practical and beneficial.

Modifying the values set by the manufacturer therefore has advantages. The PedalBox will meet the expectations of customers and their cars. The often delayed throttle response of modern engines is gone, while retaining the standard engine control unit.

Pedalbox CurvePedalbox

The “Throttle Response” curve shows the speed at which an engine responds to the driver’s pressing of the accelerator. Deficiencies are evident here, especially at times of strong acceleration.

Throttle response has less to do with how much power a vehicle has but rather how long it needs to fully release this power, with petrol engines frequently performing better here than diesel ones in this regard.

Stage 1 Chip Tuning

X-treme chip – Stage 1 Chip Tuning

The X-treme chip uses the 32-bit ARM Cortex III™ micro controller of the Cortex- series made by ARM and is enormously powerful. With its 48 MHz-clocking processor that delivers 48 million/sec communications to your ECU, this chip is perfect for High Performance gains from your vehicle and much quicker and smoother responses are delivered to your vehicles fuel management system. It provides maximum increases to turbo petrol engine performance of up to 20 %.

The X-treme Chip uses a sturdy fiberglass casing.

Suitable for Stage 2 installations

Suitable for both Diesel and Petrol Turbo vehicles

Multi-map technology Chip Tuning

Chip tuning with multi-map technology means that four to eight data maps are stored in the memory and suitably retrieved depending on the desired driving behaviour. This gives an optimum match of the control parameters in each performance range.The processors used are of particular importance. For them what is important is not the maximum number of map operations (arithmetic operations / sec.), but the fact that the calculation cycle corresponds exactly to that of the main engine control unit.This is the only way to ensure that fine scanning of the grid is possible in real-time and the protection functions of the ECU (main control unit) are unaffected.

Self-learning auto calibration Chip Tuning

Another development is the ability of systems to learn the unique characteristics of their vehicle. During a short run-in period, the memory function gathers the individual data on the different injection cycles. The information obtained serves as a basis for optimization. This way, standard tolerances are compensated for and the best results obtained for each vehicle – without any complicated manual settings.

PDI System (Stage 2) – Diesel

PDI systems consisting of high-tech electronics and is well protected by a special, heat and acid-resistant plastic. Connects to the vehicle’s injector plugs. The increase in performance would be around 30%. Additional power is achieved depending on rpm by changing the amount of fuel injected relative to the load conditions. Injector units offer the best tuning available for a vehicle to date.

The PDI has four user-selectable programmes, that increases engine power by up to 30%. If driving style is adjusted, the unit can even allow fuel consumption to be reduced by up to 15%. The four modes available are, SPORT mode, SPORT Plus mode, ECO mode and Towing mode.

Custom tuning is available by data logging injector values and making sure that the unit performance optimally for your specific vehicle.

PDI10-System (Stage 3) – Diesel

With the exclusive PDI10 system up to eight parameters can be changed via various sensors. Additional power is achieved depending on rpm (if necessary) by changing the amount of fuel injected in relation to a change in the boost pressure. The maximum of eight parameters include amount of fuel injected, boost pressure, air mass, rpm, temperature and load conditions.

The PDI10 system consists of high-tech electronics and is well protected by a special, heat and acid-resistant plastic. Completely waterproof!

The cable harness is equipped with a maximum of ten connections and is checked electronically several times before shipment. The sturdy 18-pin connector from the automotive sector is specially designed for tough conditions. The adapter plugs are manufactured in OEM quality. No soldering or cutting any wires is necessary. Just connect it up and it’s done!

CRD-09/10/14 (Stage 2/3)- Diesel

Tuning with multi-map technology means that four to eight data maps are stored in the memory and suitably retrieved depending on the desired driving behaviour. This gives an optimum match of the control parameters in each performance range.

The Chiptuning box is subject to the strict quality controls at DTE-Systems GmbH. This guarantees that you, the customer, will receive a perfect product.

Diesel particulate filter compatible

Another advantage of current units with multi-map technology is the fact that they adhere to the legal emissions prescribed for the vehicle. Due to the optimized combustion across all performance ranges the fuel is used 100% efficiently – smoke and soot are history.
